Morman Crickets
Does anyone know exactly where these crickets are? We were taking I-80 west across Nevada on way to Crater Lake National Park but we sure don't want to run into those. Any information is appreciated.
Thank you

- Last week I ran into the red Mormon crickets at Pyramid Lake Nevada next to highway 445 and just northwest of Pelican Point and Windless Bay Beach. They were numerous and I enjoyed squishing them underfoot but had to chase them down.
Good exercise in addition to changing a flat on my heavily loaded Ram 1500. They will sneak up on you. Quite a challenge changing the flat in high heat of the day but I had great help from local Indian named Tolby. I have his number if you ever need assist on Pyramid Lake Indian reservation. Cheers. - The road from Mountain Home, ID down to Elko, NV we had Mormon crickets by the millions. A horrible, horrible mess. Betsy.
- Thank you all so much. Have googled it but just keeps saying Elko. Think we will choose different route.
Thanks very appreciated!
Tara - Sometime ago we ran into a mess of them between Owyhee and Mountain City, NV
